Johnny Depp Vs Amber Heard Defamation trial live

You sound like you haven’t gotten laid in years.

Amber Turd and her fake cries are laughable. That’s not a real cry.
Never said I believed her cries. I had no strong opinion of it one way or the other. Just trying to be more informed. I was curious why people were drawn to this case a few weeks ago. And today I was curious why there was a strong rooting interest. People have posted things that have allowed me to understand that more. Which is what I was hoping for. :messenger_sunglasses:

I cannot stress this enough, Amber Heard is a terrible actress, absolutely, hilariously, terrible, TERRIBLE actress. Megyn Kelly is a fucking moron just for the fact that she believed her based on that cringy testimony.

Well she tried to cry on the stand for two days straight but I only saw one lonely tear. It was hilarious when her acting coach then said "Amber has a problem producing tears when she is acting"

Was simply poetic.

Yes, this was a few weeks ago. The testimony where she was crying on the stand. Megyn said she believed her testimony and she comes off as a genuinely abused person who has suffered years of domestic abuse. Also thought the shitting in the bed thing was being drastically overblown. That's her opinion, I didn't put more stock into it than anyone else's. Just noted it.
She didnt cry. She pulled faces and put on a voice. No tears were shed, as her acting coach said she cannot cry on demand.

Multiple times she reached for a tissue to wipe her eyes but realised there were no tears so wiped her nose. The jury could see there were no tears.

You didn't ask a question you said it basically seems like it was mutual abuse based on what little you have heard. I don't see one question mark in your first paragraph of your post. Which is why I respectfully asked you to not post. You decided to reply with complete disrespect.

So to answer your question, the following is a short summary of what the trial has uncovered:
1) evidence of her manipulating photos to increase redness of her cheek due to alleged abuse
2) using the same photo but claiming they are from different times of day - totally ridiculous. None of her photos can be validated as they are not raw files, from the original device but backups, and most of them have gone through an editor.
3) testimony from an officer she attacked her first spouse at an airport. she was actually arrested and had to appear in court but they were not allowed to get that in as it was deemed too prejudicial against her.
4) slapped her best friend, who is no longer her friend
5) used the same photo for two different incidents.
6) She admits to hitting him in multiple audio recordings.
7) she admitted to instigating fights and that she would get violent if he tried to leave to their couples therapist
8) caught lying about being in cahoots with TMZ
9) staging a hoax in order to extort JD for spousal support, when she didn't get what she wanted, she went and got a temp restraining order against him when he wasn't even in California and wouldn't be for months and called TMZ to capture the moment she comes out of the courthouse.
10) 3rd party witness testimonies that completely destroy many of her claims.
11) No one, except her sister Whitney, has seen JD be violent with AH or any other person in his 58 years of life. The incident where Whitney claims JD was violent she cannot even provide a story that aligns with her sister's story of the same event. Whitney's friend Jennifer Howell, that she had to move into after this event, has a completely different story.
12) testimony from 3 police officers that went to their apartment on a night she claims violently attacked her and ripped hair out of her scalp and destroyed their apartment. None of the officers that came saw any injuries to her face or damage to property.
13) In none of the recordings, most of which she recorded in secret, does JD assault her or admit to assaulting her. As stated, it is she that admits assaults and sounds like an insane abuser, certainly not a victim

The worst thing AH's team has are text messages from JD to either family or friends where he is venting and writing some dark stuff but understandable if your life is being ruined.

There is more, but I cannot be bothered to type anymore.
Seems being the key word. I didn't come in here declarative and saying that it was mutually abusive and anyone who believes otherwise is an idiot. I didn't say anything like that at all. I phrased it that way purposefully so I could be corrected if I was wrong in that assessment. And you went through the trouble of posting some facts, which I very much appreciate, as to why you may not believe that assessment to be true.

In future, I'll definitely be more inquisitive rather than offering even general assessments if I'm lacking knowledge on a subject. All I always want are the facts at the end of the day and to be educated on as many subjects as I can be. I don't have the time to study up on everything, which is why I want to know more about the things I haven't had the time to.

Fair enough. No hard feelings.

I was 20 when it happened, my first gf, I was too shy, too naive ...

And she gaslighted me by saying "this is your first relationship, so you dont have experience, but all relationships are like this"

Wouldnt happen now since I'm way more mature and experienced

And it's harder for men to admit suffering from abuse due to sexism. Tell your friends, or even cops, that you are being abused from your significant other and they'll say "lol, man up, dude"

About your last sentence: people can be monsters, no matter the gender. So it rustle my jimmies that MeToo is so focused on women.

Because it makes it harder for guys who are already suffering from some form of abuse


Oh I didn't mean to imply you did something wrong, I just used your post as an example to warn men to take precautions.

Regarding the last half of your post, personally I never felt I needed help and I still maintain it was my fault because I stayed with her, I take full responsibility for that and I don't give a shit about new-age bullshit that call that victim blaming. Also men unlike women aren't afraid for their lives in situations like these because we're physically much stronger so it's not the same and honestly I didn't even care about the occasional violence (hell I have a friend that after years of friendship he still backhand slaps me in the nuts as a joke.... motherfucker), it was the fact that she was always ruining my mood with her pathetic insanity. And yes, people can be monsters regardless of gender but only one gender nowadays can both be abusive and then ruin your life afterwards with fake accusations, this is why you need to be careful with crazy chicks specifically.

Dior kept him, apparently their sales have boomed. I assume he's got some royalties or whatever - I've heard he's not doing well financially but who knows. If he sold one of his properties he'd have more money than I will my entire life.

I think the royalties from Pirates is pretty good probably and he sold all those penthouses in LA. He had like a whole village in France he tried to sell but don't know if he ever managed to, must be a really small market for people into owning whole villages.

And what happens when 5 are on one side and 2 on the other? Johnny looses?

Not necessarily. That's a hung jury, for which there are several different outcomes.

Didn't his former business partners rinse him, but he recovered some of the money and sold a couple of properties. Man's not broke.

He sued them for 25 mill and settled, so he probably got less than what he sued for. Pretty sure the trial showed that he was still making 15 to 20 mill a year on royalties and the Dior deal he has.

Man, the closing arguments for Depp’s team were fire.

And Vasquez firing off the long list of folks who weren’t paid but still testified on behalf of Depp, was chef’s kiss. While on Heard’s side, the only person that wasn’t paid was her sister. All the other ‘expert’ witnesses had to be enticed with cash to side with Heard …

+ the suttle comment about being in person here.
Her former "friends" knew that if they would be in person there that they would get destroyed.

The past few years I’ve lost count of the times I thought I had a reasonable view of a situation only to be shocked by the outcome.

Definitely hoping for Johnny.

I watched Pirates 1 last night to fall asleep to.

It made me laugh as I thought to myself the only thing this surreal trial has been missing is Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly showing up in character as Will Turner and Elizebeth Swan to testify for Johnny.

I still remember seeing Pirates 1 at the cinema when I was 11. Fucking great film, great cast.

After that powerful and emotional closing argument Elaine delivered there are people like you who still doubt that this is exactly what will happen. Shameful.

that’s where i’m at, the past few years i’ve just been routinely shocked and surprised by the exact opposite of reasonable things happening. at this point I basically expect the world to come together in complete harmony and world pease, only for aliens to show up and kill everyone the next day.

They did go real cheap to hire that second rate Doc Brown.

The jury cant have any discussion with other people about the trial, right? And cant see any reaction online?

Unless they spend the next 3 days on an island, they will have a hard time

Hmm I’ve read a theory that JDs team purposely called him back to the stand because they knew amber will most likely wants to have the last word and so they can finish her in the cross ( which they did )

A pretty risky move but it worked ?
What do you guys think ?

It worked I guess as johnny only had the truth to go on they couldn't catch him out in a lie. Just a few questionable texts, one that is brutal but expected for a man that's just had everything taken from him by a lying bitch. The others were incoming messages which he didn't send which is why he didn't rember sending it. Wasn't his writing style either.

Turd was slaughtered again, she's definitely not sending Camille a Christmas card this year, pretty sure Camille could've got more out of her than she did. Plenty of stuff seen and mentioned by casual observers that would've ended it, but perhaps it was already ruled out by the judge.

Eg cannot believe the photo guy was not allowed to talk about the blatant image manipulation that had taken place.

But this is the country that acquitted OJ, so who the fuck knows.

I bet some game developer is looking at how the world is oddly gripped by this court case and is already working on courtroom simulator game.

Saw on the news some raving women saying that this is a regression for the me too movement and that women will hesitate to denunciate more now because of this trial.

Implying that women are pure angels incapable of lying..

harry potter bitch please GIF by emibob

If their movement cannot withstand the fact that a man was a victim and the woman was the abuser then the movement needs to go under.

Why can't they just support JD as a victim, and toss AH the abuser and liar out? Yes, it's embarrassing that they supported the abuser and cancelled the victim but act like an adult and take some responsibility, and stop believing every allegation that gets thrown out on social media and do some due diligence and demand evidence if individuals are named and a chance for them to also speak.

This one trial doesn't impact female victims what so ever, because AH is not a victim, she is an abuser. This is one case and it shouldn't be politicized. The problem with these ideologues is that they are collectivists, who believe in identity politics and are incapable of separating an individual from a group. I'm not less likely to believe a woman because AH as an individual is batshit crazy, and I'm not more likely to believe any man because JD is a victim. I believe in evidence.

That's some risky 4D chess if so.
